One of the the members who claimed to a polling station executive said, they lodged a former complaint to the stakeholders and were promised that a confirmation from the national headquarters would determine their fate.

"When were in Bawumia's camp, nobody removed our names from the register. Why are they now treating us like this?" They quizzed in disappointment.

Meanwhile, Eric Oppong Kyekyeku, a polling station chairman who spoke to this reporter said, he was much worried over the situation adding that there was a need for leaders to rectify.

He however refuted claims that those who had their names expunged from the register were affected because they were from Kennedy's camp.
